I have been tutoring since 1998 when I was in college, teaching math, Spanish, ESL, Portuguese, basic computer software programs and English. I have also translated and interpreted for local immigration law firms and immigration itself for almost 10 years. I can provide small group instruction or one-on-one tutoring for all levels of students from Pre-k through adult learners. I currently possess a master's degree in Spanish, Portuguese and Education. I have taught both in a traditional classroom setting and also in a virtual environment.
I understand how to differentiate all instruction to fit my student's needs. During the school year, I am a full time teacher of Spanish, but always make time to help others on the side through private tutoring. For me, this is a lot more than just receiving additional money. I have a true passion to help others learn and succeed in the real world outside of the classroom. My favorite subjects to teach are foreign languages including Spanish, Portuguese and ESL. I have also traveled to many locales and have unique experiences to add to my tutoring experience as well as attended an immersion schools for languages.
I will always go above and beyond to work with any student and help them the best way that I know how. I have a very high success rate for improvement of their overall grades, study skills and assessment results within 1-2 months. I am also very knowledgeable of my content areas, keep up-to-date on any changes or modifications made to the curriculum. I am flexible and will put forth my best effort to work with you and your family to provide you with the best service possible. You may contact me through email or phone with any questions, concerns, problems or comments that you may need to express outside of our tutoring sessions. I am here to help you, educate you and teach you so that you can understand. So please allow me this opportunity to assist you in any way that I can and make your challenges disappear. Thank you.
